It's too bad that this one misses the mark, I enjoyed the other books in this series but this one didn't work for me. I didn't particularly like the characters nor did I fully understand or like the romance. The side characters all felt pretty bland as well. It just wasn't as fun of a read as the others which is probably the real reason I'm so disappointed because, whatever flaws the others had, they were fun reads. This one, not so much.
